"She was like the dawn, insubstantial and somehow transient, as though she would fade from reality at any moment." Every day the villagers watch as Death, a spectral suit of black armour mounted upon a horse, rides through the valley beneath their mountain top home. After a lifetime living on the edge of Death's domain, his close proximity is neither terrible or threatening, rather he has become a simple fact of life and a familiar neighbour. Nothing seems to change until one night a young boy, alone in the meadows beneath a summer moon, watches a mysterious figure in white approaching the village through the tall grass. That fateful night culminates in a love story that crosses the borders between the village and the valley, childhood and adulthood, and even life and death. Death's Door is a novella from the author best selling "Love and Space Dust" and "Could You Ever Live Without?"

This wild-west cowboy story is about Jack Jones who's the sheriff of Abilene, being tall rugged, and handsome, he went around thinking he was god's gift to women. What he didn't know was that some of the older tradesmen knowing what he was like with the ladies derived great delight at his expense when they bet between themselves, on who he was going to bed next, and have a good laugh when he inevitably picked on the wrong woman. His poor girlfriend, the beautiful Alice Bell, who's so in love with him, is losing all hope of him ever changing, realizing that Leopards never change their spots. But what Jack didn't realize was that if he carried on treating people badly, he would only have himself to blame when things went awry, for life has a way of turning back on you and biting you in the arse!

Through a selection of letters to friends and literary peers, Dai Greatcoat presents a rare insight into the life of the poet and artist David Jones and in so doing offers an autobiographical portrait of the author in his own words.

These poems, assembled shortly before the author's death in 1974, are all set in parts of the Roman Empire, either in the Holy Land or on the Celtic fringes. They are animated by David Jones's Catholic faith and by his own experiences as a soldier.

Written between the late 1930s and the late 1950s, Epoch and Artist represents those essays that David Jones wished to see preserved in his lifetime.Beginning with his most personal reflections upon Welsh culture, the selection turns next to Jones's thoughts on the position of art and the artist in the twentieth-century, concluding with writings on the nature of epoch and European culture and history.
